| from where to get quality links: | | | | advice you to try to exchange links with a |
| | | | website having a minimum PR 4. |

| Article writing is one of the best ways to | | | | his PR is 0 do exchange links if his site is |
| generate lots of quality links. What you have | | | | related and is quality because a PR 0 of now |
| to do is just to write some quality articles | | | | can mean a PR 6 tomorrow. Always prefer a |
| and have to distribute them online with your | | | | text link when exchanging links because |
| bio at the bottom containing a link to your | | | | search engines cant index dynamic ones and |
| site. This way you would not only get quality | | | | always try to use your most important |
| links but you will also get lots of traffic | | | | keywords (that you want to rank for) in the |
| from people who would read those articles. So | | | | anchor text of the links. |
| make sure to write as much quality article as | | | | |
| you can because quality sells, but if you | | | | Directory Submission |
| don't want to write the articles by yourself | | | | |
| then just hire a copywriter with a good track | | | | What could be the best way to get free one |
| record for this. | | | | way and quality links except getting listed |

| | | | However there are many automated tools that |
| Posting in forums is an another effective way | | | | can submit your website to the directories |
| to generate lots of quality links. This | | | | but these tool are not recommended by me |
| technique is sometimes highly profitable for | | | | because these automated submission tools are |
| ranking high in Google. Many times you will | | | | not liked by the directories. So it is |
| find that some websites belonging to the | | | | recommended that use manual submission, but |
